chokes under pressure when I remember Pollard going through a horrendous time with the same problem. No-one accused him of cracking under pressure. When asked how he fixed the problem he said he didn't do anything other than practice and alter his technique..


I believe it's in the software ....... rhythm, timing, feel, confidence and probably technique.

The two are incomparable.

Without delving into the specifics of gremlins, because that's a bottomless pit, there is some common sense logic to apply here.

Kicking higher means the ball travels further before it reaches the uprights.

Kicking higher means the ball has more time to be affected by atmospheric conditions.

Without knowing anything about any kicker, it's safe to say that a lower kicking trajectory is likely a more accurate one.

So my layman's advice, as someone that couldn't kick a spoiled pinpkin...I'd just say he should kick lower and more direct.

It’s possible he can fix the problem….but we can’t rely on him fixing the problem in the next 12 days.

Pollard and Libbok are apparently very close and Pollard is mentoring Libbok and has helped him with his goal kicking

Lol when someone figures out what a "pinpkin" is then please let me know too.

Hahaha

I have the best typos.
